Kristen Stewart gets her film on in New York City

The actress got emotional filming a scene for her new indie film, Anesthesia, in Manhattan

Kristen Stewart was spotted filming on the streets of Manhattan last night, shooting what appeared to be an extremely emotional scene for her new independent film, Anesthesia.

The 23-year-old actress was quite bundled up for the late night shoot, wearing a green beanie and cosy, patterned coat.

The film, which is directed by Tim Blake Nelson, follows the storylines of a group of New Yorkers who are all affected by a certain philosophy professor. The film also stars Sam Waterston, who K Stew was seen filming with last night.

According to Deadline, Kristen's role in the film is relatively minor and she will only be on set for several days.

In other Kristen Stewart news, the star has reportedly begun to mend things with former boyfriend Robert Pattinson, spending over four hours at the actor's Beverly Hills home this past week.
